# Requirements
|
|
|
|
Headscale should just work as long as the following requirements are met:
|
|
|
|
- A server with a public IP address for headscale. A dual-stack setup with a public IPv4 and a public IPv6 address is
|
|
recommended.
|
|
- A reasonably modern Linux or BSD based operating system.
|
|
- A dedicated user account to run headscale.
|
|
- A little bit of command line knowledge to configure and operate headscale.
|
|
|
|
## Assumptions
|
|
|
|
The headscale documentation and the provided examples are written with a few assumptions in mind:
|
|
|
|
- Headscale is running as system service via a dedicated user `headscale`.
|
|
- The [configuration](../ref/configuration.md) is loaded from `/etc/headscale/config.yaml`.
|
|
- SQLite is used as database.
|
|
- The data directory for headscale (used for private keys, ACLs, SQLite database, …) is located in `/var/lib/headscale`.
|
|
- URLs and values that need to be replaced by the user are either denoted as `<VALUE_TO_CHANGE>` or use placeholder
|
|
values such as `headscale.example.com`.
|
|
|
|
Please adjust to your local environment accordingly.
